Story
Introducing Kenny, our current longest-term resident. Kenny has been a member of the FDHS crew since he arrived as a stray back in August of 2023. This mixed breed pup has been looked over time and time again and our hearts break for this sweet guy! He's a very special pup that's going to need a very special home.Kenny is a people-oriented pup, and he’s proven to be a wonderful companion! He's always ready to shower his human friends with plenty of slobbery kisses and will do just about anything for a snack. We do suggest a home with older kids as he can get a little mouthy when he plays. This youthful and energetic fellow is the perfect fit for an active owner or family. Whether it’s taking long walks or enjoying playful romps in a fenced yard, Kenny is up for any adventure. He’s a strong walker, and using a harness can make your outings even more enjoyable. He has a lot of energy, so lots of exercise is a must! Kenny is not a good candidate for using a tie-out, as he gets very worked up. During the day he keeps a very clean kennel and with a little patience we are confident he's going to master house manners. We are requiring that Kenny goes to a home as the only animal due to his reactivity. Please keep in mind that because Kenny has spent so much of his young life in a shelter environment, he is going to need a significant amount of time to decompress and catch into the routine of being a "normal" dog. But we promise he is going to be so worth it! If you’re ready to provide love, exercise, and an abundance of kisses, Kenny is eager to become your devoted partner.**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and UTD on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs approximately 50 pounds**

Story
Hello world! The name is Duke and I'm looking for love!I was found as a stray near the shelter back March wearing a harness and leash. The staff was certain I'd be reclaimed because I had obviously been someone's companion...but no one ever came. I'm not sure why my people never came back for me or bothered calling to look for me. I really am a good boy with a big heart.In the last few months I've been at FDHS I've made great friends with the staff members. They take care of my daily needs and try to give me all the extra attention they can. Although I really like my care-takers, it's not the same as having a home of my own.I'm not a picky fellow! Just give me some chin scratches and a place to take a nap and I'm good. I'm a pretty low-key dog and I don't require a ton of attention or maintenance like a puppy. I'm excellent in my kennel and do great in the fenced yard. I love to wander around and smell all the good smells, I really think I'd enjoy a home where I get to spend time exploring on leash outdoors.As for other dogs, I don't seem to mind the calmer females. The rowdy boys do tend to get me a little worked up, but I could potentially live with most other dogs with proper introductions and a slow approach. I'm friendly with all people and no behavioral issues have been noted. I have yet to be tested with cats.I really am a super good boy and I'm so excited to meet my fur-ever person!**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention.

Story
Hi, I’m Bo. Life has been a little tough lately—I’ve been at the shelter for a few months now after being surrendered when my owner left me and my canine buddy alone in a house. My buddy has since found a home, and I’m hoping it’s my turn next. I’m a smart dog, but all this change has made me pretty anxious, and I really struggle when I’m left by myself for too long. Because of my past, I have some separation anxiety, so I’m looking for a home where I won’t be alone much.I’m also a strong boy and could use some help with my leash skills, but I do great in a fenced yard and always keep my kennel nice and clean. I’m just hoping to find a place where I can finally feel safe and loved again.If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will appreciate your love and patience, I might just be the dog for you. I promise to give you all my heart in return. Could you be the one to help me start this new chapter in my life?**Neutered, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs 64 lbs**

Hi there! I'm Rosie, your future best friend and the ultimate snuggle buddy. I’m a sweet Lab mix looking for a home where I can be your one and only fur baby. I promise I’ll make up for it with heaps of love and affection!I’m housebroken, well-mannered, and have perfected the art of cuddling. My idea of a perfect evening is cozying up on the couch with you, maybe catching a Marvel movie marathon—because who doesn’t love a good superhero flick?If you’re looking for a loyal companion with a heart full of love, I’m your girl. Can’t wait to meet you and start our adventures together! 💕**Spayed, microchipped, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention. Weighs 47 lbs**

He is housebroken, he can "sit", "stay", "come", "in", "out", "no" and "cage". Larry loves to be near humans. He will chase a ball and play a cute game where he won’t give it back. Larry is neutered.
